Correct use of pressure transmitters

During the use of pressure sensors, attention should be paid to the following situations:
1. Prevent the transmitter from coming into contact with corrosive or overheated media;
2. Prevent sediment from settling inside the conduit;
3. When measuring liquid pressure, the pressure tap should be located on the side of the process pipeline to avoid sediment accumulation;
4. When measuring gas pressure, the pressure tap should be located at the top of the process pipeline, and the transmitter should also be installed at the top of the process pipeline to facilitate the accumulation of liquid into the process pipeline;
5. Pressure pipes should be installed in areas with low temperature fluctuations;
6. When measuring steam or other high-temperature media, it is necessary to connect a buffer tube (coil) or other condenser, and the working temperature of the transmitter should not exceed the limit;
7. When freezing occurs in winter, the transmitter installed outdoors must take anti freezing measures to prevent the liquid in the pressure inlet from expanding due to ice volume, which may cause damage to the sensor;
8. When measuring liquid pressure, the installation position of the transmitter should avoid liquid impact (water hammer phenomenon) to prevent damage to the sensor due to overpressure;
9. When wiring, thread the cable through the waterproof joint (accessory) or flexible tube and tighten the sealing nut to prevent rainwater from leaking into the transmitter housing through the cable.
